What Our Clients Have To Say

“After recognizing the need for a focused lead generation program we recruited Connects Marketing Group to help our sales team generate the name recognition and new contacts that we had difficulty finding. The approach of Robin and the Connects team produced immediate results and all our expectations were far exceeded. The professionalism of the team, and the thoroughness of their approach, was enough to make us realize that not only would our investment in the program be rewarded by new customers, new projects and increased sales, but also with a better understanding of the need for a professional marketing approach. I highly recommend the Connects Marketing Group and thank Robin and the Connects team for a successful program.” Adrian Rishworth, VP Sales, J Royal

“CMG as a partner is tenacious and always deliver what they promise. They can take a complex concept or sale, break it down methodically, and have a targeted message to share with the prospective customer while speaking the party line of our company. Working with CMG gives us the ability to turn up or dial down activity in a program offering without additional sales and marketing costs being incurred. We’ve utilized them for lead generation and are pleased they offer so many additional relevant B2B Business Development services. We see them as an extension our on-staff sales teams.

CMG’s greatest strength is their smart and highly engaged people and how quickly they get a sales management program launched. It takes a special breed of people to pick up the phone and clearly communicate the marketing message. If you are going to spend money on a tradeshow, you have to take advantage of the leads and do the follow up. The best way to get ROI of any tradeshow is to utilize Connects. Within a day or two they will literally touch every lead received from a tradeshow. CMG leaves no stone unturned and that is key in turning prospects into customers efficiently and quickly.” Jeff Heier, Security Solutions Strategist, CA Technologies

“We sought assistance from Connects to help us gain penetration into a major customer where we previously had little contact. Robin and her team worked with us to understand our company and develop a profile to assist them in their efforts. Working from this minimal amount of data, they were able to make contacts deep inside our target customer within the first week. We began receiving high quality leads almost immediately with individuals from both engineering and procurement (our two targets). Within two weeks, we had more leads than we could effectively follow up on. More importantly, Robin and her staff were able to generate interest with the Customer to meet with us to learn about our capabilities. As a result, we have been invited to conduct Lunch and Learn sessions for engineers at three separate divisions within our target customer.

We could not have hoped for any better results than what the team at Connects was able to produce in such a short period of time working with minimal input from us. We expect the leads they uncovered to continue to generate new opportunities for us well into the future.
I give my highest recommendation for Robin and her team.” Brian Alessio, Business Development Engineer, Parker Hannifin Corporation
